It’s that time of week again – BB Noms. Now it’s become pretty obvious over the course of evictions (Kate, TJ & Bodie, Demet) that Ghastly Gretel, the FNL/Up-Late gang of Mikie Goldman & cohorts, and of course the BB production team (Chris Noble and pals) have a definite agenda, and a preference for faves they want to see stay in the house. I know Gretle has always laid it on pretty thick at the best of times, but she’s been particularly overdoing the simpering admiration for the evictees this year, and thereby the implication that somehow WE, the voting public, are voting ‘wrong’ by removing all the annoying fucking twats from the house. It’s also become pretty clear over the course of the last 4 weeks whom the production team DON’T want to see staying in the BB house, and therefore ultimately winning the prize. Hayley & Andrew (‘Haydrew’) to be exact.

Demet’s eviction, coupled with her win of FNL last week, and thereby the power of the nominations ‘twist’ however, has presented the Endemol crew with an unprecedented opportunity to manipulate the nominations process this time ‘twould seem. Before Demet left the house last night, she was instructed to write out a list (much like Australia’s actual ballot system employed during State & Federal elections) of her fellow HM’s in preferential order both to “save” and “nominate” for purposes of the ‘twist’.

Ostensibly, we the viewing public were told, this list would remain ‘confidential’ and ‘unopened’ until after the HM nominations finished tonight. This assertion is cleary utter bullshit ! Naturally, Demet’s voting was fairly predictable anyway – we all knew she would save Emma, and put either Hayley or Andrew in the former’s place. Now in normal circumstances, without a ‘double eviction’, there was no way the production team could get BOTH Andrew and Hayley out at the same time, even with this highly predictable ‘ballot’ from Demet. So what did (ig)Noble & Co. decide to do ?

(1) Obviously peeked at Demet’s ‘twist’ ballot, just to make sure they would indeed have the opportunity to carry out step 2 of their devious plan below.

(2) Called Hayley & Andrew in to the diary room at the start of the Nom’s night, and (for no good reason at all – it was a fucking GIVEN that they would have an “advantage” going into the house as a couple right from the start, yet BB had no qualms accepting this initially and taking them into the house. We also DIDN’T see the producers trying to pull this kind of fucked up stunt with EITHER the Logan twins in 2005, NOR the completely excerable Krystal and Karen mother/daughter duo last year !!! ), decreed that one of them must leave the house this week. Giving them the (bullshit) chance to ‘choose’ which one would go and which one would stay (with 30 seconds thinking time).

It was of course immaterial which one the couple elected – either way, the producers would have spun Demet’s ballot (much like they spin the non-adding-up percentages of the “vote & evict” totals on eviction nights) with their usual lack of transparency to make sure the other partner in the couple ended up on the public eviction chopping block.

THIS IS SUCH FUCKING CRAP !

We are being royally screwed with, all so the producers, Gretel and everyone else at Endemol can have their little ‘favourites’ get closer to the prize. But you know what people ? It’s OUR house, and OUR decision – as Gretel keeps trying to bang into our heads – we need to vote for the house you want to watch™, so you all KNOW what we need to do, right ?

Vote to SAVE ANDREW – the ‘geeks’ ain’t goin without a fight !!! ;-)
